Windchill

I am using Windchill PDMLink Release 12.0 and Datecode with CPS 12.0.0.2The documentation related to License Usage Reporting Utility is too generic. We need help to understand what kind of information are extracted by this tool. In particular we don't understand what type of license is "PTC View and Print".Need to understand how to interpret and explain to the customer License Usage Reporting Utility extraction.

Hello everyone,I am currently facing an issue with modifying the default "Required" view in Windchill. Despite having wcadmin permissions, I cannot replace or update this system-level view. Here's a detailed overview of what I've tried and observed:What I Need:I want to replace the existing default "Required" view with a custom configuration that better suits my requirements. I do not want to create a new view; my goal is to overwrite or modify the existing one.The same thing for Edit Multiple Objects  Steps I Followed:I exported the "Required" view configuration to an XML file from Windchill.I added the following TableColumnDefinition to the XML file: <TableColumnDefinition> <name>IBA|fr.satys.plm.SecondaryReference</name> <locked>false</locked> <sortNumber>0</sortNumber> <treeColumn>false</treeColumn> <sortDescending>false</sortDescending> <hidden>false</hidden> <width>

Version: Windchill 13.0   Use Case: Recently ran across an issue where a pdf generated through Windchill by way of my NX workers comes back with some of the view geometries not showing on a drawing. When I run that same file through ugbatch.bat, I get the correct output. Is this a CreoView Adapter recipe issue? Or NX settings issue? Leaning toward the former but I don't know what different settings ugbatch.bat (out of the box, in my case) may run to get a different result. Description: Recently ran across an issue where a pdf generated through Windchill by way of my NX workers comes back with some of the view geometries not showing on a drawing. When I run that same file through ugbatch.bat, I get the correct output.   The incorrect result comes from the standard "check in triggers publishing and everything runs through the CAD worker with PDF as additional file format" flow.  If I open the file on my system and export a PDF from NX directly, this exports fine. If I man

Version: Windchill 12.0 Use Case: We are about to start a deletion of our DB Schema and run the uninstall process of Windchill. We have a valid Windchill license enabled. The DB, Backend and Frontend servers will not change, so will we need to have a new license cut from PTC or will the same license HOSTID stay the same so we can just attach the existing license file when needed?Description: We are about to start a deletion of our DB Schema and run the uninstall process of Windchill.

I am using Windchill PDMLink Release 12.0 and Datecode with CPS 12.0.2.9Hello,Please, we use several states (design, prototype, and production) and we use partslink (parts with classification attributes).How is it possible to ensure, when we upgrade from prototype to production, that we have a check that all classifications attributes are filed.If it's not the case, stop the upgrade.Thanks

Many Document actions are missing in Quality Container. Request to please add these as a part of QMS module.

Sometimes by accident or by a third party supplier, the locale of the method server is changed On our case it was because of a third party supplier, we were able to find out thanks to this extra debug trace that would throw a "dummy" error to print to stacktrace and find out who is calling the method setLocale of WTContext I attached the modification here

Hi all, By reading the WRS manual I can see that some tables can be expanded: CR's can be expanded to show AffectedObjects.   /Windchill/servlet/odata/v5/ChangeMgmt/ChangeRequests?$select=Description,AffectedSystem,LastModified,Name,Number&$filter=startswith(Name, 'Foo-')&$count=false&$expand=AffectedObjects   Also the manual shows these available to expand in a Parts query:   $expand=Uses/$ref $expand=AlternatePart $expand=Alternates($expand=AlternateFor $expand=Alternates($expand=Alternate) $expand=Alternates($expand=AlternatePart $expand=SubstitutePart $expand=PartDocAssociations($expand=RelatedCADDoc) $expand=PartDocAssociations($expand=RelatedPart)   These are shown in example code. Are there other table relations that can be expanded? I was hoping to see RelevantRequestData as something which can be expanded. Ok, yes, this is configurable, but what is the default? And which server-side XML configures this? thanks Rick

When you select a single cell (you can't select the whole row) for an item in the list, and then right click and select "delete record", the resulting pull-down has all entries greyed out.I saw someone else had the same question on 3/30/2015, and had gotten no answer.

Version: Windchill 12.1 Use Case: I am trying to create a report showing all Change Notices together with their associated Change Requests. The CR's are associated in 2 different ways: - Associated Process Objects - Associated Reference Objects I want to create an overview were both associated types CR's are shown. If possible it would be nice to show the association type in the overview as wellDescription: I can't get the report to include both link types in one overview.If I create two reports: 1 for the Change Process Link and 1 for the Change Reference Link and merge the two in excel I get wat I want but I think this should be possible in 1 report....  I also found out about the option "Outer Joint Against" you need to set this correct to also show CN's with no CR's associated to it. Is there a way to show both:- the CN's with no associated CR's- the CR's with no associate CN's Any good tips to speed up my learning experience are welcome. Courses / books / websi

Version: Windchill 12.1 Use Case: Can we install the File server before the upgrade or post upgrade ?Description: We have 5 replica servers (file servers) on production, but post upgrade customer wants to go with 2 replica servers only.So can we install and configure 2 new replica servers on new hardware along with ootb target installation before doing the upgrade or it should be done post upgrade only ?

For many years, uses have been using rename to "save-as" parts in Creo managed by Windchill with no regard to the parts being used in other assemblies and released data. Windchill fortunately manages this and fixes the pointer when the assembly is opened. We are trying to archive our data and get out of Windchill to use Creo native. These renames are causing HUGE issues because the exported assembly from our Vault calls for the old name but we are exporting the renamed part and it doesn't know where to point. For 1 to 1 instances, we are able to manually fix the list, but when renames have happened multiple times or when the old name is reused again later the data is too jumbled for logic. Has anyone delt with this or have any advice? Is this something re-vaulting can help with? Our company has not done that at any frequency over many years.

Version: Windchill 12.1 Use Case: I am trying to generate a report for all the drawings that reference a part/assembly in windchill.Description: I have attached the qml I used which seems to generate a report with multiples of the same drawing reference for a given part instead of just one (pictured below). I thought setting the criteria for Cad Document.Latest Iteration equal to 1 would return the referenced by data for only the latest iteration.   

Version: Windchill 12.0 Use Case: When selecting Check Out on a wtPart the object is checked out to the user. There are no actions available after check out.Description: When selecting Check Out on a wtPart the object is checked out to the user. There are no actions available after check out.If they use Check Out and Edit then they have normal actions.It seems that the current version/view is "working copy" if they select Info in the history table for the "Original version" then menu options are available again.

I have a user who has been deleted. Well, they have been deleted twice since I see two entries in WTUser table for them. The two accounts have different IDA2A2 in the WTPart table. One of those accounts shows up in the Personal Cabinet Admin to remove but fails with the following message: DeleteUserCabinetList:wt.folder.Cabinet:969083953<username> 2025-03-03 16:19:51,314 INFO [ajp-nio-127.0.0.1-8010-exec-22] wt.system.err - (wt.epm.util.EPMResource/32) wt.epm.util.EPMCannotDeleteWorkspaceFolderException: Folder <workspace name> belongs to Workspace <workspace name> , and may not be deleted. Ok, so I go to view other user's workspace as admin on my homepage. The two deleted user account appear but I am able to distinguish one from another. When I got to pull them up to clear the workspaces I see this error: 2025-03-03 16:47:42,863 ERROR [ajp-nio-127.0.0.1-8010-exec-4] com.ptc.windchill.uwgm.cadx.workspaces.WorkspacesPageContext - WorkspacesPageContext.getOtherUser :: (

HI All,By default 'Auto Associate Parts to CAD Documents' checkbox is always enabled in Workgroup Manager during Check-in. But, user can manually uncheck the option. Is there a way to lock this preference from editing?
